About

The authors, who have won 15 international picture book awards, work together to create a picture book that cultivates children's sense of social boundaries.

What troubles do children encounter in social interactions? For example, they do not know how to refuse and cannot accept being rejected; they do not know how to wait and cannot accept waiting; they do not know how to respect others and are often self-centered; they do not know how to take responsibility and refuse to bear the consequences; they never share or overshare, etc. wait. These problems more or less trouble the growth of children, and even affect their ability to properly handle interpersonal relationships when they grow up.

This set of "Don't Touch My Hair: A Picture Book for Developing Children's Sense of Social Boundaries" is a set of picture books for children aged 3-6 years old to develop a sense of social boundaries. It uses 6 different stories to help children understand that they need to have clear self-boundaries when interacting with others. You are who you are and you don’t need to please anyone. We also need to let our children understand clear boundaries for others: because if you put yourself in someone else’s shoes, everyone will be more comfortable getting along with them. In the process of cultivating children's sense of social boundaries, they can improve their communication skills, problem-solving skills, empathy, etc. Help children establish good social concepts, know propriety, and know how to advance and retreat.
